Although it’s been done, many time, many ways, Marvel should publish an attendant collection of JB’s Uncanny X-men run to complement the Elsewhen editions. Are there any plans to do so? I would be interested. Thoughts?

I have not heard of anything from Marvel, but I am surprised that it hasn't already been done. There are omnibus editions containing JB's Uncanny X-Men run (Uncanny X-Men Omnibus Vol. 1 & 2) but not a Byrne-specific Uncanny X-Men Omnibus. I was expecting Marvel to do a John Byrne X-Men Omnibus that would contain Uncanny X-Men and Hidden Years. It would have been a pretty big volume but no bigger than other omnibus volumes Marvel has released. Marvel instead issued Hidden Years by itself as an omnibus. Since Uncanny X-Men is really the only major Byrne-drawn work that hasn't yet been released in a Byrne-specific omnibus, I think chances are good that it will happen, especially with the release(s) of Elsewhen.

I thought I had read that Marvel has recently or is about to re-release PHOENIX: THE UNTOLD STORY?

There is a Phoenix Omnibus that has a good chunk (97-105, 107-108 and 125-138) of the main run, then includes the Phoenix, The Untold Story and the What IF Phoenix had lived (27).
I think it came out back in 2022.

As long as this doesn’t encourage retentive fanboys to try to “fit” ELSEWHEN.

Vinny, yeah, they're doing a "facsimile edition" of the UNTOLD STORY one shot in mid-March.

I am glad that the Phoenix Omnibus includes the Proteus story as I have always thought that those issues are very important to the Dark Phoenix tale. Starting at issue 129 left off a good chunk of the saga.

That’s true. The “stalking” of Jean Grey really began with #125.
